Bókasafnið

						aðgengilegt í dagsins önn. Enn einu sinni erum við

því komin að hlutverki bókasafnsfræði í þekkingar-

stjórnun.

Vinnum saman

Þekkingarstjórnun er að myndast og mótast þó ýmis-

legt hafi gengið á og ekki allir hafi trú á þessum nýju

fræðum. Mikilvægt er að ná fólki saman í félagsskap,

fólki sem hefur ólíka starfsreynslu og margþættan

fræðilegan bakgrunn. Láta þetta fólk vinna saman að

þekkingarstjórnun. Það er einmitt markmið Félags um

þekkingarstjórnun..

Stjórn félagsins fagnar þeim mikla áhuga sem

bókasafnsfræðingar hafa sýnt félaginu en fjöldi þeirra

hefur nú þegar gengið til liðs við félagið.

Abstract

Icelandic Knowledge Management

Association

The Icelandic Knowledge Management Association

was formed at the beginning of 2005. The objectives of

the association include that of encouraging Icelandic

knowledge managers to work together and that of

introducing and presenting KM in industry, among

scholars and the general public. The article describes

how the Icelandic KM association was formed at a

critical juncture in the development of knowledge

management in general. Of late there has been grow-

ing criticism on KM. The field is said not to be clearly

defined, that it has been used as a selling buzzword

for bad computer software etc. The response of the

association to this criticism will be to focus on scien-

tific research and knowledge management practice

in the workplace. The field in general and in Iceland

in particular must be constructed as an independent

discipline if the confusion about what the field stands

for is to be avoided. Library and information managers

have a central role in both KM research and practical

work. We therefore see it as especially fortunate that

a number of Icelandic Librarians took part in forming

the Icelandic KM Association.
